Here’s a quick cheer-you-up for a Thursday. Can’t help but smile with this cutie!


 

When I feel overwhelmed, I repeat this mantra to calm me down and bring the current moment into focus.

Everything that needs to get done will get done, easily and efficiently.

It works.

And I wouldn’t even call myself a mantra person.

Try it out, and let me know how it works for you.
 

Until recently, I haven’t been what I would consider to be an affirmations person. They always felt forced. I felt like I was lying.

Something changed recently, and I’m not sure what it was. What I do know is that now and then I can throw around a few positively optimistic phrases (which do not represent my reality as I see it) and feel good about it.

I’ve picked up a few lately about money, health, and life in general. I repeat them in the shower, while driving, and in my notebook, whenever the time feels right.

I’m curious, are you an affirmations person? How do you go about it?
